Risk Assessment Guidance

Current safety legislation imposes a significant risk management commitment on Railway Group members. Part of the role of the Risk analysis team is to provide the industry with guidance on risk issues. Apart from internal support for other RSSB departments, the risk analysis team provides assistance in a number of areas such as:

• Development of a guidance note (GE/GN8561) for the production of Railway Safety Case risk assessments
• Development of spreadsheet based templates to support the use of the SRM for duty holder risk assessments
• Risk management guidance to individual stakeholders
• Expert input into major industry wide risk assessment projects
